About: -
Hubbard Creek Reservoir is on Sandy Creek, Hubbard Creek and Brushy Creek in Stephens County, 51 miles
northeast of Abilene and about five miles west of Breckenridge and covers approximately 15,000 acres.
Hubbard Creek Lake has abundant standing timber, brush, boat docks, black willow
trees, buttonbush, and aquatic vegetation. Rocky structure and cover are also
abundant. Hydrilla was found in the reservoir in 1998 and is primarily located
around the Tanglewood Island area, the dam, and in Enco slough. When the reservoir is full, it is known for excellent white crappie and white
bass fishing in Hubbard and Sandy Creeks in late fall and winter. Hubbard Creek
Lake is also a popular choice for largemouth bass anglers, especially tournament
anglers. Florida largemouth bass were introduced in 1979. Catfishing is often
underrated: the lake supports good populations of catfish, especially blue
catfish.
